I recall hearing on TV that Chinese firms have purchased several Billion dollars worth of farmland in the US.

All sorts of agricultural production from what I understand.

A Ukrainian father's terrifying journey to a Russian prison and back

Nikita Horban was abducted from his village and taken to Russia. He would come back without any toes.

Gee I wonder why people don't want to live in a country run by Russia?

A friend sent this; I thought it hilarious. I could have posted it to the humor thread, but because of who I work for I instead saw the political side to this.

Exactly.

So ridiculous that it's hilarious yet no different that someone "identifying" as anything else they're not. However, for some reason we're supposed to coddle them and agree to "identify" them as such? Laughable until it pisses you off.

BTW... I identify as a gazillionaire bwana nymphomaniac-magnate who's short on gun safes, fuel for my private jet, and kids' student loans that need "forgiving". Chop chop fellas, help me out here.

Did a little research on who owns Ukrainian farms. Seems to be foreign countries and Ukrainian Oligarchs. The United States is headed that way.

Likewise Canada. China is investing heavily. What could possibly go wrong?

So which books did the genus cluster read that started them down the road of revolution?

Google John Locke.

Stop in a village in the region west of Kyiv, and you will hear a story of someone who vanished.

I am old enough to remember the "Congo War"

Bleakest of eyes - each and every one.

Warren Zevon's music makes the perfect backdrop.

@Hogpatrol, didn't know how to react to your post. So I decided to go with a sad face, because it's sad the amount of publicity given to this whacko.
